It all started with the Helghast thing. It was really funny because we were aware of a lot of possibilities of who we could work with. I remember the first time that Final Fantasy was mentioned, and there was a bet over whether it would be happened since it’s such a precious franchise.

And with Metal Gear, I bought my PS1 for Metal Gear Solid, and I didn’t have a memory card – so I left the game on when I went to work and came home and played some more.

To be involved with MGS is… slightly bizarre. When we were looking at what options as a studio we’d have to work with, they were under the “yeah, right!” category of games.
LittleBigPlanet and Sackboy have a strong identity and flavor. So then you try to find the translation to Metal Gear and Sephiroth, and the guys that made the characters really brought the flavors of LittleBigPlanet and Metal Gear together and kept the flavor of both of them

[On Final Fantasy collaboration:] It’s a whole universe, and they’ve built up this ethos. And we’re honored to be let into that universe.

We’l have more details on LittleBigPlanet’s newest residents soon. In the meantime, click here for more hi-res pics.

oh my god, that so freakn cool… i so want those skin for my Little big planet sackboys… well keep up the good work… i can’t wait to get the full verion of the game.. by the way, the beta for LBP rocks!

I have a few questions on the Sackboys/Sackgirls I heard with the Kratos Sackboy you get Kratos bad guys plus a GOW level does Nariko get bad guys and a level too?

Also both Sephiroth and Snake look awesome.

I wonder what the future holds for other Sack people. I have seen so many cool ones already and I wonder what news ones there will be.

Also with all these different Sack people a game like Super Smash Brothers would be awesome.

Just thing about Sackboy Snake fighting Sackboy Kratos and Sackboy Sephiroth and Sackgirl Nariko fighting in a one vs four(free for all) game just like Super Smash Brothers. I would love to buy this game.

Plus the game would be different then Nintendos because this game would be with Sony characters and third party member ones plus all the characters would be in Sack character form.

Again Sephiroth and Snake are awesome. So great work and I can’t wait to finally play Little Big Planet.

Haha, thanks Media Molecule. That is amazing. I seriously cannot wait until this game is released. It is going to be insane. I have the beta right now and I cannot stop playing it. I haven’t played the SOCOM Beta (which I played the whole time before I got LBP) in a while now.

Okay so we see Sephiroth now where is the FF-VII remake for PS3 ;-) Or are you guys just gonna let Square make all these Xbox games now and forget about PS3 until FF-XIII comes out like 2 years from now

@1113 zorox ….asking for something to fail so you get what you want makes no sense. Yes it would be cool to have more RPG’s and even MMORPG’s but wishing doom on LBP will get you nothing. I wish there were more positive people in this world.

… the sackboys are going to be stylin…. but we’re still needing more than a Nariko outfit for us sackgals!!

… Tombraiding gear maybe? (though we won’t need Lara’s “flotation devices” – it’s an E rated game!)
… or what about Yuna or one of the FF characters?
…. or Claire or Jill from Resident Evil?
… or Meryl from Metal Gear?

I really love the additions that MM is making with this game. I am thoroughly enjoying the Beta and will be sad on the 11th when it’s finally over. However, the 21st is not to far from then so I guess my sadness will be short lived.

My speculation:
These downloads will come later, most likely at a price, and they will include levels based on their respective games.
Sounds great to me. I’m sure the user created levels will be great, but continued support from MM is what I want.

“The Metal Gear Solid pack is scheduled for a December release, but the Final Fantasy VII pack doesn’t have a date yet. Sony plans to make both costumes available in North America and Europe as well as Japan. More details, including prices, will be revealed in the near future.”

EEEEEEE!!!! This is great!!! =D Amazin! Keeps getting better and better, and to think I was sold for LBP when I just saw the video where they jump around. I didn’t even know about the Create and share part!

And now all these cameos…it’s brilliant… a win win situation for everyone.
